Ajinomoto is a brand name for monosodium glutamate (MSG), a flavor enhancer commonly used in cooking. It consists of sodium and glutamate, an amino acid that occurs naturally in many foods, such as tomatoes and cheese. Ajinomoto enhances umami flavors in dishes, making them taste richer and more savory. While generally recognized as safe, some individuals may be sensitive to MSG and experience mild reactions.
